First Event and a Win Win

This week, I had my first event in London. I was nervous and excited, wanting to prove my talent and skills to my new employer!

During set up, Aaron met me for dinner and got to see a little bit of what I actually do. He's never been to an event that I've planned except for our wedding : ) so it was really fun for him to see my work life. Then because he was taking a few days off work, he headed to see Manchester United play at their home stadium with Yacine.

The event was hugely successful but very stressful. The venue was not prepared and difficult to work with which made my job much more demanding. It was long hours and I was running around all day. Tonight when I got home though, Aaron had returned from his trip, and I found a fridge full of craft beer and a bag of bath products from my favorite London store waiting for me. It was also accompanied by a note saying that he was proud of how hard I'd worked on the event and that I needed to relax tonight!

And although this may have been partially a ploy so he could watch March Madness basketball all night while I took a bath, it was a win win for both of us and it's the thought that counts! : )

  1. Love this! Good job to both of you!! I am in the same boat... boys in the house all day today and tomorrow watching basketball and playing games. Maybe Aaron should send his brother a hint?!?! ;)
